Ganesha is a Disabled, Afroindigenous community healer and matriarch, militant anti-imperialist, educator, national organizer, and multidisciplinary performance artist of 11 years—hailing from Tennessee, currently residing in Florida, and operating out of Seattle. She centers radical care and hospitality in everything that she does from the stage, studio, classroom, street, and conference room. Ganesha’s drive stems from an ancestral calling to ignite the people with a hunger for reintegration from displacement and ethnocide, abolition of all colonial and neocolonial systems and systemic abuses, sex worker advocacy, food and land sovereignty, environmental justice, youth protections, by-and-for community security initiatives, and equitable resource building and redistribution via ceremony and ancestral communion.

Meredith, a proud Gullah Geechee woman hailing from the vibrant coast of South Carolina, is a dedicated advocate for political empowerment, reproductive justice, abolition, and community healing. Growing up steeped in the rich traditions of her Gullah Geechee heritage, she learned early the importance of community, resilience, and activism. Harnessing these values, she has become a prominent figure in local and regional politics, working tirelessly to uplift marginalized voices and enact meaningful change.

Her passion for gender justice has driven her to the forefront of the movement, advocating for the rights of all individuals to make informed choices about their bodies and futures. She is a vocal supporter of comprehensive sex education, access to healthcare, and the destigmatization of reproductive health.

In her commitment to abolition, she actively works to dismantle systems of oppression, advocating for transformative justice practices that prioritize healing and restoration over punishment. She believes in the power of communities to address harm and conflict in ways that foster growth and reconciliation.

Beyond her activism, she is deeply involved in community healing efforts, recognizing the intergenerational trauma caused by historical injustices. She is a firm believer in the healing power of storytelling, art, and cultural preservation, seeking to uplift and preserve the unique cultural heritage of the Gullah Geechee people. Through her work, she embodies the spirit of her ancestors, fighting for a future where all individuals are empowered, all communities are healed, and justice prevails. 

In her free time she loves painting, fishing, and bonding with her husband (Shawn), her son (Ulysses) and her two furbabies (Lyle & Ash).
